Training & Boarding
At our newly remodeled, state-of-the-art facility, Massbach Kennels provides high-quality boarding and training services tailored to the needs of both dogs and their owners.
Boarding
We offer short- and long-term boarding for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Our climate-controlled kennels feature excellent ventilation, providing a clean, low-stress environment where dogs have the space and comfort they need to relax.
We also provide:
- Day boarding and overnight stays
- In-home care options
- Pick-up and drop-off services for clients in the Chicagoland area
Massbach Kennels is fully licensed by the State of Illinois, so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in experienced, responsible hands.
Boarding Rates:
- $30/night for the first dog
- $25/night for each additional dog from the same household
- Stays over 24 hours will include a $20 daycare fee
For questions or bookings, feel free to call or text us directly.
Training
Every dog learns differently — that’s why we use customized training plans based on your dog’s temperament, goals, and current behavior. Whether your dog needs help with recall, biting, obedience, or general manners, our experienced trainers are here to help.
At Massbach Kennels, training doesn’t stop with your dog — we train you, too. Our goal is to give owners the tools and confidence needed to maintain progress at home.
What sets our training apart:
- Personalized blog with weekly videos and progress updates
- Owner involvement throughout the process
- Private one-on-one sessions available for those who prefer not to board
We specialize in medium to large breeds and offer a wide range of training services, including:
- Basic & advanced obedience
- Retriever training (from puppy to finished dog)
- Upland bird training
- Shed antler and blood-trailing
- Custom programs tailored to your dog’s specific needs
Whether you’re training a young puppy, refining a companion’s manners, or preparing a hunting partner, we’re here to guide you with experience, clear communication, and a results-driven approach.
